A Holiday Tradition Continues
Posted on | December 24, 2012 | 24 Comments
“We lost. We are losers. . . . Our operatives are incompetent and we live in a dream world.”
— Rob Long of National Review, in an interview with Joe Hagan of New York magazine during a Caribbean cruise in November
Readers expect “Christmas Cheesecake” from us this time year and what kind of conservative would I be if I did not maintain this tradition?
Last year’s round-up was entitled, “Behold, I Bring You Peace, Goodwill, and Also This Gratuitous Vintage Pinup Girl.” Nothing quite so cheers up despondent bloggers the way a pretty girl does, unless maybe it’s a blizzard of round-up linkage:
- Donald Douglas comments on the petition drive to deport CNN’s Piers Morgan, an obnoxious Brit who thinks Americans who believe in the Second Amendment are stupid. I can’t say for sure that I was the first person to use #DeportPiersMorgan as a Twitter hashtag, but I did everything I could to promote it. Twitchy reports that the Brits have got their own petition to keep us from shipping him back.
- Danielle Saul discusses the problems caused by tolerating anti-social behavior: “When I was in 5th grade I was bullied by a classmate to the point that my parents almost pulled me out of school. When my mom tried to talk to his mother about it, she replied, ‘He just has a lot of anger issues. He gets it from his dad’ and then did nothing to address the situation. A few years later, this classmate raped and murdered a two-year old girl, a tragedy which easily could have been prevented if his mother had chosen chose to take action sooner.”
- John Hoge has the breaking news that politicians lie.
- Pete Da Tech Guy says the world can wait until after Christmas.
- Lawrence Person’s Battleswarm Blog has a round-up of post-Newtown reactions on gun rights.
- Wizbang reports that a former Olympic runner worked as a $600-an-hour call girl in Vegas. For $600 an hour, I’d expect her to make me sandwiches while she was at it.
- Jimmie Bise Jr. has some great Christmas music from Nat King Cole.
- Hey did I mention there’s a petition to deport Piers Morgan?
- We can’t deport David Gregory, but we can (and should) prosecute him to the maximum extent of the law. Unfortunately, D.C. doesn’t have the death penalty.
- You probably can’t afford to send your kids to school with David Gregory’s children at an ultra-exclusive school with an 11-man security staff. (To say nothing of the fact that the president’s kids go to school there, so the place is crawling with armed Secret Service, too.)
- Becca Lower has a few thoughts on “John Kerry: International Man of Mystery.”
- Doug Hagin reports that the war on gun-owners has begun — and the media are the aggressors.
- Enoch Root asks some questions about the family background of the Newtown killer.
- Jackie Wellfonder supports Dana Loesch.
- Merry Christmas: New federal regulations from Obama.
- Bob Belvedere has the Blogger Christmas Traffic Blues.
- Finally, Instapundit tells us that there is now scientific proof that women with larger breasts are more intelligent.
You know what this means? She’s a genius!
Merry Christmas, everybody!

When even Perez Hilton is bitch slapping Piers Morgan, you know it is bad…
Didn’t Piers Morgan get caught altering photographs during Abu Graib to make them look worse? That is how he ended up on the entertainment side of things–he was drummed out of real news coverage.

The explanation is that both organs are largely composed of fat. Therein lies the justification for my waistline.
December 25th, 2012 @ 1:06 pm
From John Ringo’s “We Few”: “How do you get a guy to find a kilo of fat attractive? Put a nipple on it.” 😎

If I wuz a Brit, I wouldn’t want Piers back either. They prolly heaved a very heavy sigh of relief when his plane was finally over the Atlantic headed west bound.
Why don’t we deport him to some place like Buna, New Guinea. They prolly won’t like him either, but at least he will stand out and they’ll have an easier time avoiding him. And, more importantly, he won’t be here.
December 25th, 2012 @ 9:47 pm
And there’s something wrong with that?
December 26th, 2012 @ 7:47 am
Not a thing….
